Bionic Commando, Commodore 64
There are two versions of Bionic Commando for the Commodore 64 – a British version, developed by Software Creations and published by GO!, and a US version, developed by Pacific Dataworks International and published by Capcom. Both were released in 1988.

The game was developed by Crawfish Interactive and published by BAM! Entertainment in 2001. A second Ecks vs. Sever game, called Ballistic, was released in 2002.

The Willow Pattern Adventure, Commodore 64
Published by Firebird in 1987, The Willow Pattern Adventure is an Asian-themed maze game that is actually an unashamed, almost carbon copy remake of the 1984 game, Treasure Island. Both games were created by Greg Duddle.
Treasure Island, Commodore 64
